The low-lying gecko (Microgecko depressus) is a species of lizard in the family Gekkonidae. The species is endemic to western Pakistan.
M. depressus assumes a "serpentine" position for a short period of time when alarmed or threatened. This type of locomotive pattern resumes after a slow jerk, whilst advancing in this position each halt (or stoppage).
M. depressus is oviparous.
